    Brianna gave a great tour around the various chocolate shops in Downtown Melbourne. She provided some great information and background regarding the shops and the area that we otherwise would not have found! The chocolate was all delicious and well presented by the shops. Definitely worth the time and price!

    Tonya was a fabulous guide and had a lot of really good info. Not only did we learn about all of the different chocolates we were trying, but she gave us recommendations for things to do/eat around the city as well. Super fun experience!

    I am not one to usually go on these kind of tours but I have to say this was a great way to spend 3 hours in Melbourne. The time flew by and there was not one moment of boredom. Amanda’s local knowledge was great and the places she took the group had succulent coffee, chocolates and desserts. This tour is a must for any couples, groups of friends or families that visit Melbourne. 10/10!

    This was the best walking tour I’ve done! Amanda was amazing and so knowable and was the most bright burst of energy. What an amazing 3 hour experience with very generous chocolate tastings. Chocolate and cheese - who would’ve thought!

    My daughter chose this tour and as we both like chocolate , we enjoyed learning about this fascinating substance …Our guide Ivan filled us in on the origin and composition of chocolate and we proceeded to discover some special local treats ( won’t reveal the details but they are tasty and memorable ) Multiple venues and a lot of local history included - local architecture , characters and their links to chocolate /sweet treats in this city made it a fun few hours ….

  • Excellent tour
